Read a property from an object

Inputs

Outputs

How to:

1. Add the read property node to the canvas

2. Connect in a feature or object

3. Identify the property to read

   • You could type the property into the box on the node, or connect a string or panel node.

   • The property name will be formatted with a leading prefix to identify its nested location in the object.

     • For instance:

     

     To read the Levels from this object, type **properties.**levels

     

     • Using the Reader node can assist in determining nested location of properties.

       Each { } (curly brackets) indicates a nesting level. In this example, Levels is inside the properties { }

       

     As a further example:

     If you wanted to read the geometry type, you would put **geometry.**type in the read properties input

     

4. The output is the value stored in that property
